Hey there! Have you ever wondered what it would be like to run a prison? Well, in this fun story, we meet Howie, who turns his hotel into a prison! Let’s dive into this silly adventure and see what happens.
Howie and his friends are watching TV when they stumble upon a channel called the Open Fridge Network. It’s showing a program about turning homes into prisons. Howie thinks it sounds like a great idea and decides to turn his hotel into a prison. But who would want to live in a prison? Well, Howie finds out soon enough!
Howie becomes the warden, and his hotel is now a prison for some very annoying prisoners. There’s Cow the Tickler, Badger the Interferer, Penguin the Pusher, and Anteater, who loves to glue things. These prisoners are in jail because they annoy everyone around them!
Howie tries to run the prison with his friends. Piggy makes prison food, Narwhal plays music, and Sloth is in charge of the searchlight. But things don’t go as planned. The prisoners don’t want to escape because they like it there! They enjoy the pool, the fruit baskets, and even the hot tub disco!
Howie realizes that to get his hotel back, he needs to make the prisoners escape. But they don’t want to leave! So, Howie decides to get himself thrown into his own prison and lead an escape. He tries to be super annoying, but nothing works until he accidentally elbows someone while they’re gluing. Finally, he’s in prison!
Now that Howie is in prison, he plans the escape. But the prisoners decide to leave on their own because they find Howie too rude. They all leave, and Howie gets his hotel back. Success!
Just when things seem normal, Howie installs some fancy toilets called the Flushinators. But they cause the hotel to float away into the ocean! Now, the hotel is like a cruise ship, and everyone is having a blast.
The hotel ends up on a mysterious island where crabs want to throw Octo, Howie’s friend, into a volcano! Howie and his friends come up with a plan to save Octo and escape the island. They use the Flushinators to flush their way back home!
After all the excitement, Howie and his friends are finally back at the hotel. Everything is back to normal, and they can relax. But who knows what wacky adventure they’ll have next?
This story teaches us that sometimes, things don’t go as planned, but with creativity and teamwork, we can solve any problem. Plus, it’s always good to have a little fun along the way!
Thanks for joining Howie and his friends on this crazy adventure. Remember, even when things get a little wild, there’s always a way to make it work!

Design Your Own Wacky Hotel: Imagine you have a hotel that can turn into anything you want. Draw a picture of your hotel and describe what special features it has. Does it have a slide instead of stairs? Maybe a room full of bouncing balls? Share your drawing with your classmates and explain why your hotel is unique.
Role-Playing Adventure: With a group of friends or family members, act out a scene from Howie’s adventure. You can be Howie, one of the annoying prisoners, or one of Howie’s friends. Use your imagination to create new scenes or endings. How would you solve the problems Howie faced?
Problem-Solving Challenge: Think about a time when something didn’t go as planned for you. How did you solve the problem? Write a short story or draw a comic strip about your experience. Share it with the class and discuss how creativity and teamwork helped you, just like Howie and his friends.

[Music]
Yeah, yeah
[Music]
For you
[Music]
Nope, nope
Hmm, close but nope. Just pick something.
It has to be the right show; otherwise, we’re just wasting our time. I thought that was the point of watching TV.
Awesome, the Open Fridge Network! It’s mustard week.
No, but mustard week?
Hey there, prison lovers! Why not turn your private home or business into a real live prison?
I have rights! I want to talk to my lawyer!
Forget it. Turn your private home or business into a real-life prison.
Yeah, who’d do that?
Oh no…
Well, that’s working. This is going great.
I wish we heard about this sooner.
The phone appears to be a banana.
Well, I must admit your chances of becoming a prisoner are quite slim. This hotel has too many escape areas.
What escape areas?
Look, prison clip Buddy Guy! I can run a prison; I’ve been running this place for years. Just look around!
Howie, there is the window you wanted.
That one was a mistake.
Well, there is this one group of prisoners who do need to be housed somewhere.
It’s been my lifelong dream to be the warden of my very own jail. Please let go of me!
Meet your new prisoners!
Hey, I am Warden Howie. This here is my prison, and that means you live by my rules. We hope that you’ll enjoy your stay. There’s fresh towels by the pool and a welcome fruit basket in each of your cells.
Listen up! Here’s one of the various flavors of ice cream served in the lounge: strawberry at 11:15, chocolate at 11:20, and chocolate-strawberry at 11:25.
I was saying strawberry chocolate at 11:30.
It’s very annoying!
Piggy, walking by with a snack on the tree, having fun.
Oh, Piggy, just make that…
Oh, didn’t I tell you? These inmates are in prison for being super annoying!
What?
Well, they do stuff that just plain gets on society’s nerves.
Cow’s a Tickler, Badger likes to interfere, Penguin likes to see how far you can push it, and Anteater… well, you’ll find out about Anteater anyway. They’re your problem now. Have fun, Warden! But no take-backsies!
Okay, listen up! Things are gonna get pretty strict around here. Rule one: get noodles. Rule two: eat noodles. Rule three: watch mustard week.
Oops, this is my to-do list. This is gonna be awesome!
What do you think Anteater’s in for?
You know, I’m not sure, but he did just glue me to the desk.
Listen up, my jailkeeping crew! After watching a whole bunch of prison movies on fast forward, I know what we have to do.
Piggy, you’ll make prison-style slop. Narwhal, you’ll play prison music, and Sloth, you’ll be in charge of the searchlight, sweeping it back and forth.
Sounds great! One question: do we have a searchlight?
Is this it? Nope, then no.
And you’ll be busy doing warden stuff.
His name is Warden Howie, and this here tells the truth. He always wore sunglasses and a great big head or two. He likes to run his prison, and he’ll light up high. He deputized a bamboo plant without even knowing why.
Sure, there were lots of tickles and lots of stuff got thrown, and I’d probably take a break, but I’m glued to the microphone.
Oh yeah, so who’s got two thumbs and had an awesome first day?
We really just want to go back to being a hotel.
You haven’t even given it a chance!
But those annoying guys are just so annoying!
Stop that!
It’s not so bad. I’m the warden, and they haven’t been annoying me. I’m gonna have a quick celebratory sandwich and off to bed.
[Music]
Huh.
[Laughter]
Okay, how do we get rid of these guys?
That’s why you called me, Warden. You’ve only been open two hours.
Sorry, according to the big rule book, the only way you can close down this facility on such short notice is if all the prisoners escape.
Here, you seem to need this more than me. Now, if you’ll excuse me, the sun will be up soon, and if I don’t get my morning crow in, I’m cranky all day.
Cock-a-doodle-doo to you all!
We can only close down if all the prisoners escape?
Oh, sorry guys, I guess we’re stuck with… wait a minute! Time to escape!
Check out up and Adam!
What’s all the yelling?
We don’t need to escape; there are no locks on the doors, and we like it here!
Why wouldn’t you want to escape?
More lemonade? Yes, thanks! Now keep it down; I got hot tub disco in the morning.
But they escaped because it kind of looks like they’re still here.
The problem is I’ve been too good at being warden.
Why would they want to leave if I’m still here doing my awesome warden stuff?
The only way to win my prison hotel back is to get myself thrown into my own prison hotel and then lead the escape from my own hotel prison.
Now, wait, what are we talking about exactly?
Now, what can I do to get myself thrown in jail?
[Music]
Okay, this book has a list of annoying things that will get you thrown into an extremely minimum security prison.
It’s easy to find one that strangely being pelted by pudding isn’t as annoying as you’d think.
Okay, Granby, here goes!
Do you know how annoying this is?
Yes, and the winner is an inflatable pool bed! Pretty, but not in here.
That’s weird because if anyone knows how to be annoying, it’s you.
Thanks, Bunny! Maybe I could just read you something, and you can do that.
Some like, I don’t need some book to tell me how to be annoying. Besides, it’s kind of fun, like a guessing game.
[Music]
Oh, why did you say oh? And she lives giving away the ending.
Nope!
Oh!
It’s gotta be in the book.
Nope!
How annoying’s a guy gotta be to get thrown in jail around here?
Hey, all this annoying makes me hungry.
Huh?
Now that’s annoying! Did you do this?
No!
It’s gonna take forever unless I go hyper annoying!
Hyper annoying!
Yes!
Ding dong!
What is up with that guy?
Then two of the unit with garbage and garbage with dinner.
Oh yeah, Grandma and a cow’s pie!
Hey, then I glad to stop in front of Bunny, and she tells me just how annoying I probably should have started slowing down sooner.
Would you turn that light off already?
Oh, how’d I do?
Sorry, Howie!
What? All that, and I didn’t do a single officially annoying thing!
What’s a guy gotta do?
You made me drip my glue!
Sorry!
[Applause]
Someone’s elbow while they’re gluing is grounds for immediate…
You really? I’m going to prison!
All right, I’ll call the police.
Thanks, Buddy! Who’s the warden around here?
I am! You’re all yours!
All right, now to lead the escape!
You don’t have to; we’re leaving!
What? Sure, we’re annoying, but you’re just plain rude!
No, but I… you’re out of here!
Guys, I’m not rude; I’m just really, really annoying!
Really, really annoying!
Really, really, really!
All right, I think we get the point!
[Music]
Well played, Anteater! Well played!
Nope, not my work!
What?
But if not you, then who?
Chalk went up for the little guy!
That one was me!
Wait!
Yes! Everything’s finally back to normal!
Well, except for mine.
Good night, everyone!
Good guys, safe dreams!
My feet are let the jumpy things bite!
Good morning!
Uh, step to the floor here. A little help, anybody?
Oh well, at least I have you, TV!
[Music]
Yeah, that is the sound of boring, my friend.
That’s a boring flush!
You’re right, that is boring!
I deserve more from a flush!
You most certainly do!
I don’t know how we… I think boring and authority is a good thing, friend.
One thing I’ve learned is that if you have a boring toilet, you’ll have a boring life.
I don’t want a boring life!
Why waste your time with pedestrian porcelain when you could be riding one of these babies?
[Music]
Have a seat on me!
Whoa, the Flushinator! The most advanced, powerful, and expensive toilet on the planet!
Most places don’t want them; too dangerous, they say.
But you? Danger is my middle name!
Well, just sign that along with your first name. All 187 units are yours!
Where are we gonna put them all?
Everywhere! Now I just need a pen.
Thanks! Now let’s see how it works.
Wait, we have to read the manual; there are all these warnings!
What is it for amateurs? Let’s flush!
That was awesome!
Boring was better! Let’s do it again!
Hello!
Awesome!
[Music]
What a goofy…
Get down here!
On my way, buddy!
Okay, who put the pool here and made it a lot bigger?
Again, it must have something to do with all those flushing haters you installed!
Oh, I knew that kid is in the end; that’s ridiculous!
Here’s the situation: from what I can tell, all land as we know it has vanished!
No! The hotel is floating in the middle of the ocean!
Oh, cool!
Oh, it’s like we’re on a cruise ship!
Cruise ships are so romantic!
I totally agree with you, Sloth!
Really, it is like we’re on a cruise ship!
Oh, but that’s fine! How could you miss a hotel floating in the middle of the ocean?
I now declare us to be the SS Banana Cabana!
It’s like we’re a boat!
Tell… get it?
Nobody?
Nobody gets it!
Lady, stay still!
Oh, it’s kind of making me dizzy!
A little healthier!
Yeah, I know what you mean!
Anyone?
Maybe tiny or something? It’s not right!
We’re a hotel, not a boat!
This is unnatural!
What could be more natural? We’re sailing in the open seas, just like boat tails have done for thousands of years!
But what if something goes wrong?
What could possibly go…
Foreign?
Huh? Well, that doesn’t seem so bad!
Doesn’t seem so bad? We’re stranded!
It’s an island paradise! Just look around!
Um, Howie, we already live on an island paradise.
Good point! But here, it’s like we’re on vacation from the hustle and bustle of our usual island paradise!
Oh, look! A bowling alley!
A patch of grass with some rocks on it!
How did you get Hopscotch out of that?
See? There’s plenty to do! Right? Plenty to do!
Like wait for that volcano to erupt!
Wow, this island’s got it all! This is gonna be awesome!
It doesn’t get any better than this!
[Music]
Fake stock!
Oh, what’s wrong, Octo?
I can’t… if I put my tentacle on it, but I got a bad feeling about this place!
You need to loosen up, pal! Here, let’s throw this ball around a bit!
I don’t want to!
Come on, it’ll be fun!
I said I don’t want to!
See? I guess I just need to lose it!
There’s really nothing to worry, buddy!
Eight legs? That is very many!
This will make fine sacrifice for volcano!
Yep, yep, yep, yep, yep!
Oh, you guys should put on some mittens; those clothes are very pointy!
Get back here with my friend!
Wait! How many legs do you have?
Yep! Two!
Volcano only happy with many legs!
If volcano no happy, volcano go boom!
Yep, yep, yep!
Let him go! Hurry! Save yourself!
They have terrible spears!
[Music]
Crabs carrying spears?
Yes! Tickly tickly spears! And they took Octo! They said they wanted the animal with the most legs so that they could throw it into the volcano!
It’s the only way to stop the volcano from going boom!
Yep! I wonder what that means?
It means…
No, you’re right! Don’t worry, buddy! We’re coming, and nothing will stop us!
Oh, right! The whole Octo leg volcano thing! Let’s go!
Okay, no volcano fell!
Could we talk about this? My sunscreen really can’t handle volcano!
Making sure you got the right guy! You got eight legs! What could be better than eight legs?
How about this?
Oh, many more legs!
Yep! Fourteen legs, to be precise! And that’s a pretty nice skirt!
Who are you?
Yep! I am, uh, Howie! Who am I again?
Fortino, remember?
Right!
[Music]
Right! Release octopus!
Cease whatever it is!
The thing octopuses do!
Really? That’s pretty messy!
I’m kind of rude!
Don’t say I didn’t want you!
[Applause]
We’re doomed!
Yep! Guys, it washes out! Not doomed by messy rude thing! By big boom boom!
Yep! It’s gone from burping to barfing!
Grab them all! We need legs!
Yep! You know, a couple of us thrown in there would probably solve the problem!
Yep! Just saying!
Yep!
This is not looking good!
Piggy saves the day by mixing butt with head!
Oh, you guys look like you got it all under control!
F-L-U-S-H! That must spell recline!
Looks like all those flipper curls finally paid off!
No! We got flushed off the island!
Oh, that’s it! We’ll flush our way home! Come on, everybody, to the toilets!
But I don’t have to go! Just fly!
All right!
Nope!
[Music]
Questions?
I am the mayor of the world! It may have taken 68 hours, but finally, all my precious money is safe!
Is there anything they can’t do?
Well, time to try out the new showerheads I bought!
What?
It tickled!
[Music]
